  1. To find the length of the hypotenuse (c) in a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states:

    [ c^2 = a^2 + b^2 ]

    where ( a ) and ( b ) are the lengths of the two legs of the triangle.

    1. Identify the lengths of legs a and b.
    2. Square both lengths: ( a^2 ) and ( b^2 )
    3. Add the squares together: ( a^2 + b^2 )
    4. Take the square root of the sum to find ( c ): ( c = sqrt{a^2 + b^2} )

    Once you have computed the value for ( c ), round it to the nearest tenth.

    If you provide the lengths of the legs, I can help you calculate the hypotenuse!
